New life in dark places : Residential Focusing intensive in South Wales

Are there dark corners of your life that seem hard to reach? Are there tangles or stuck areas that nothing seems to help with? Maybe life circumstances like loss or illness have thrown you into a dark place. Join us, at this darkening time of year to explore and sense for new life within.

Through the gentle process of Focusing and companioning we can learn to keep company with everything inside, no matter what we find. Over the weekend we will explore how to take Focusing to the most difficult places, where we may find the seeds of change and movement forward.

Open to those who have done at least one weekend of Focusing training.
Taught and led by Manjudeva and Jutika.
